Wow, Eden, I cannot believe you guys did the hill out of Seward. Glad you're all home and reasonably intact now.

You and my DH are another cut of biker.He rode from Ravenna
to ALki and back today, he was riding in the rain.
I'll wait until the ice is gone.
It is pretty icy on the trail . . . I am cancelling our ride for tomorrow on the Interurban/Green River Trail. It would be horrible (and I would feel awful) if someone fell and broke a wrist or something. We have a new year ahead of us . . . spring is just around the corner (I sure hope so) and I will definitely repost a ride when the weather is warmer and the ice and snow a thing of the past.
Let's all do a mantra now . . . warm, sunny, windless days . . . warm, sunny, windless days . . . warm, sunny, windless days . . .

We'll have to go for next Sunday. I haven't looked outside yet, having just gotten up to go to work, but I doubt there's been much improvement.
Even rain would be better than this ice!

It's colder than it was yesterday! the promised warming did not yet occur!
what a drag. and i have a date next sunday. grrr.
i don't like this ice! My bikes are crying out for a ride, but jeez, this ice stuff is nuts!
Looks like another day of huddling under blankets. I don't even want to try to get to church (10 miles) when I'm surrounded by icy hills and can't even get to the grocery store (10 blocks)!
Those spiked mtb ice-tires are starting to look mighty fine!![]()

Knot, once you get past the 'hood, it's not too bad.
We live in a bowl on the side of a hill, we have to go up and then down
to get ANYWHERE. But the cars have made ruts in the snow so there is enough asphalt showing that we can get in and out.
